Great to see the thought process and the final result later!!. I love the small painting , I see that you cleaned it up in the digital version, specially the sky.I think it was kind of nice the "roughness" of the first.

very nice! But why did you do the digital version? Although they are very similar, I prefer the painting, for its painterly qualities. If you had the Picasso in mind, have you thought of turning the saturation down? maybe it's my monitor, but it seems VERY bright pink.

Hey thanks guys. This is just a personal project for fun. In my mind the Picasso WAS so pink but then I found that jpeg online & thought it looked kinda dull! The real guy it's based on looked like he'd lived on the beach all his like- he looked like a barnacle! I wanted to make Poseidon red raw from the sun, angry as heck & the same colour as abroiled lobster or prawn!
